Dry Hair Treatment

Start paying attention to your low fat protein intake. Women generally need 40-60 grams of protein a day. Men generally use 60-70 grams a day. (The general rule of thumb is 1 gram of protein for every pound of lean body mass. Shoot for a variety of protein sources: low fat milk, nuts, cheese, kefir and yogurt, soybean-based foods, lean meats, etc. 

Consistently take a comprehensive multi-vitamin each day with food. Knock out vitamin A, mineral, and B vitamin deficiencies, which are robbing you of lustrous locks. Avoid cheap synthetic, low dosage vitamins like Centrum, One-A-Day, etc. Look at food based vitamins and trust good brands like Natrol, Solgar, and Twin Labs. 

Take Total EFA from Health From the Sun, or another heavy metal free, essential fatty acid gel caps for lustrous hair. EFA’s also make your skin resilient and smooth. They act as internal moisturizers. Follow instructions on the label. 

Cut up a very ripe avocado and add it, with two tablespoons of amber (unfiltered) jojoba oil, and one-tablespoon virgin olive oil, to a blender and whip until very smooth. Blend it thoroughly in your damp hair and cover your hair with a plastic cap and towel drape. Lightly shampoo afterward and rinse with cold water. Do this before bedtime and allow your hair to air dry. Small traces of it should remain in your hair and you can get up the next morning and shampoo more thoroughly. 

Avocadoes are rich in essential fatty acids and natural oils. Expeller pressed, natural avocado oil is not cheap but worth every penny if you can find it fresh. I had a hard time finding fresh sources, so I just wind up using the avocado itself. This recipe spoils very quickly, so use it, or lose it.
